Peter Thiel: IQ 160 and still believes in Christianity
It sounds impossible. A person with an IQ of 160 — one in 31,560 — believing in Christianity. Even an IQ of 150 — one in 2,330 — is already at a genius level (this is the range I estimate he belongs to based on rarity). Yet Peter Thiel, whose IQ likely oscillates between those…

The history of IQ and the nature vs. nurture debate
Few topics in psychology have sparked as much passion, controversy, and misunderstanding as the debate over intelligence. The concept of the intelligence quotient, or IQ, transformed a philosophical question into a measurable construct, but it also ignited one of the most enduring scientific discussions: how much of human intelligence is inherited, and how much depends…

High IQ, yet stupid: A Czech case
There is a paradox in modern Czech society. We meet people with extremely high IQ, strong diplomas, and prestigious professions. They made it through psychology, medicine, and pharmaceuticals. On paper, they look like the intellectual elite. In reality, they are nothing of the sort. They lack rationality, cannot think critically, and collapse outside the narrow…

The abuse of titans’ super-intelligence
Humanity often praises its great minds. These titans of intellect shaped history, invented theories, and built systems that changed the world. Yet their brilliance did not always serve truth or humanity. Many of them abused their intelligence. They produced errors, false systems, or destructive inventions. The paradox is striking: super-intelligence has been both humanity’s greatest…

Even some not so intelligent people don’t believe in God
Disbelief in God is often treated as a mark of superior intelligence. People imagine scientists, philosophers, or brilliant skeptics tearing down arguments of faith. But reality is not that simple. Even some not so intelligent people do not believe in God. They did not arrive there through complex reasoning. They reached it by relying on…

Death in their country or on the boat?
For millions of people, the choice is brutal and final. Stay in their homeland and die slowly, or risk dying quickly at sea. There is no safety net. There is no third way. They live in countries where food is scarce, wages are nonexistent, health care is a fantasy, and the future is a blank…

Education at its maximum? Give me a break
Education at its maximum? Give me a break They say they want to educate you at the maximum level. These lies cannot be bigger. Not only would educating people at its maximum mean lifelong education, but the form of education would be completely different. Curriculum only beneficial to the super-rich Literature, physics, chemistry, biology, geography,…

IQ and when do scientists reach their peak?
People think science is about genius. One great mind, one breakthrough, one flash of insight. But in truth, scientific achievement depends on many kinds of intelligence. And those kinds peak at different times. The myth of a single IQ peak IQ is not one thing. It splits. Performance intelligence (fluid) handles abstract reasoning and novel…

A security architecture for people, without people
Politics does not move because of elections. History does not change because of parliaments. The real shifts—the wars, the alliances, the economic collapses—begin in shadow meetings. In hotel suites, military bases, and diplomatic backdoors. A few decide what billions will endure. This is called security architecture. A set of informal, often invisible arrangements that determine…

Convincing to be atheist? IQ and fallacies prevail
People often assume that religious belief disappears once intelligence rises. They imagine that with enough education, reading, and logic, belief simply crumbles. But this illusion collapses the moment you meet a religious scholar. Or a spiritual software engineer. Or a theistic philosopher. Suddenly, it becomes obvious: intelligence does not prevent belief. In fact, it often…
